Knives Out

Oscar-nominated! Best Original Screenplay. Daniel Craig leads an all-star cast in this modern, hilarious, constantly surprising take on the classic whodunnit.

Wealthy mystery novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) has died in what appears to be a tragic suicide on the night of his birthday. But consulting detective Benoit Blanc (Craig, with a magnificent southern drawl) suspects that there could be foul play. After all, there seemed to be a great deal of tension between Thrombey and his family during his birthday party mere hours before he died…

Just as he subverted the film noir genre with his feature film debut BRICK, writer/director Rian Johnson has taken the whodunnit and turned it on its head. With an incredible cast, including Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans, Michael Shannon, Ana de Armas, Toni Collette, LaKeith Stanfield and Noah Egan, and a laugh-out-loud funny script chock full of twists and turns, Knives Out is a mystery so fun you won’t even care if it gets solved.
